millermatic 210

02-26-2010, 07:02 AM

I have a millermatic 210 that I would like to sell. It has the dual cylinder rack and the spoolmate gun. I have someone interested in buying it does anyone have a rough idea how much to ask for it? It is in real good shape and never had one problem with it.

Long answer. Assuming the unit is very clean, just a little bit of spatter or damage to the paint (i.e. its still bright blue - with a mostly smooth, shiny black front), I suspect the unit itself is worth $900 or so. Add $100 for dual cylinders and $250 for spoolgun (addons, assuming good condition, seem to go for about 1/2 of new). You might be able to do a bit better if you separated the spoolgun. Decent regulators (Victor?) help. Looks help alot. A clean machine looks like it hasn't been abused.

If the machine looks black, like you pulled it out of a coal mine, be thankful for the $500. I saw a 250 that was covered in mill scale. The guy wanted $500 and was having trouble at that price. I could only image what the insides looked like.

To get the $1500, through in the bottles and or let him weld with it. If he's used to a cheap flux core machine, you will have him sold.

In wi i've seen 3 millermatic 210's in the last 2months go for $1000-$1100. They sold in one day each of them. I sold my 5yr old dvi 1month ago for $1000. I was asking $950 and had 6ppl call about it and a guy came from 125miles away and gave me $50 dollars more than i was asking. MY dvi also sold in one day. All these machines where just the welders, no spool guns. I would say if its clean you should be able to get $1300 easy.

First it would help to post your location. A MM210 is a fine welder and the fact that it has a dual tank rack and a spool gun is a big plus. Couple that with your description as being in good shape makes it worth a good price. Just because you see them selling for less than 1K does not mean you should sell yours for that price. I just sold my MM210 set up like yours for $1450. There were many calls on it and I sold it to the first guy that came by. He said that he looked at a number of mig welders and most were in poor shape. I guess my point is don't give it away. Why are you selling it?

I am located in Hennepin IL about 45 min north of Peoria. I am selling it to upgrade to a millermatic 252 so I can get the Reach system. I wish I could put the reach on my 210. I plan on listing it on e-bay to today so I guess we will see what happens.

Was debating a used Miller 210 vs. a new 211. I get the impression that if I do NOT need portability or 120v, the Miller 210 is more of a welder. Seems I can get a good condition used 210 for less than the cost of a 211.

I am finding 210s with bottle and new spool of wire for $900 to 1000. Would appreciate thoughts. Thanks and look forward to participating here.

It would help to post your location. Check craigs list or e bay to see what others sell for. Miller used prices in my area are almost as much as new. It would help to know what size the tanks is. A small one or a 300. Big price difference.
The WELDINGWEB site does have a for sale section. Here's their site.
